CEL cylinder 1 and 3 misfire

[PsychoSuby]

i was wondering if somebody could give their opinion on what's wrong with my car. my CEL turned on and the codes said that i had a misfire on cylinder 1. my cousin suggested to test the coil pack so we took it out and it looked fine. the spark plugs looked fine also. i then switched the coil pack from cylinder 3 to cylinder 1 and vis versa and the light didnt turn on for about a month. it recently turned on again and now it says that both cylinders 1 and 3 have a misfire. does anybody know what it could be.

How many miles are on the vehicle? What year is the vehicle? Have the spark plugs ever been changed? Can you actually feel/ hear the vehicle miss or are you just going by the CEL codes? If the spark plugs where ever changed were they changed with OEM ones?

it has 37,000 miles on it. i have only had it for a few months so im not sure if the spark plugs have ever been changed but i think theyre the original ones but the brand is ngk so i think they are. i dont know what a misfire is supposed to feel like but i sort of feel a power loss.

You are in CA. Components of the emissions system are covered under an extensive warranty. Take it to a dealer, as a CEL is by definition an emissions fault. If they ask for money, point them to the pages in the owner's manual outlining the warranty for emissions components.
